@Willie_Wampum4 @PaintTouches @MisterEGB While I love the sarcasm, my favorite kind of humor, all it takes is a bit of common sense. TK has 249 assists his senior year. Oso likely had the most of any player. 30% seems about right, no?

[MUBBOldtimer @MubbOldtimer]

@PaintTouches @MisterEGB I was just about to reply that TK to Oso was probably about 75, but ask one of the analytics guys who have access to paid analytics. Rookie level my ass, lol.

[MUBBOldtimer @MubbOldtimer]

@JamieDyckes @rationalyankee It is unfixable. The stoppage that erased a World Series proved neither side gives a rats ass about the fans. The purposeful juicing of baseballs (and ignoring of players juicing themselves) proved the fans are too gullible to care.

@itsallstraw @CrackedSidewlks @PaintTouches @AnonymousEagle Agreed. One of the reasons I use this name is that I had a Twitter account in my real name which was hugely political (I spent 20 yrs in politics & policy.) I wanted a separate name for CBB content where I could follow only CBB content. This is now my lone account.

A musical trip down memory lane for those of you AL McGuire and Marquette fans of the ‘60’s and 70’s. Happy Marquette alumni weekend, especially to the class of 1976 and their 50th reunion celebration this weekend.

@almcguireconfes Damn it got SO dusty in my living room the last six minutes. Lived this all, remember it all, would love that feeling again!

[MUBBOldtimer @MubbOldtimer]

@DrW1LLPhD I'm not no, not my list. Not sure why they have Mullins even higher than Demary who was 1st Team All BE.

[MUBBOldtimer @MubbOldtimer]

Nigel is #15. 2nd highest BE returner. Probably about right. #mubb

@LeoFarry I think Claire is on point. They can't discuss anything, even acknowledge his decision, until he is signed. I'm guessing he will sign upon arrival, so we should see something this weekend or Monday. If not, then I have questions.

[MUBBOldtimer @MubbOldtimer]

There should be a foreign tour every year at this point. Real games expose what is working and what is not, even against "weaker" teams. (Now to get better coverage!)

[Ben Steele @BenSteeleMJS]

Marquette has finalized another home-and-home series ... and will also take a foreign trip this summer.

Those extra summer practices and exhibitions should help a #mubb team that is integrating key transfers to its returning core.

The Big East needs every team to schedule stronger non-conference games. There is no excuse for a season average over 250 (with an occassional exception for a new coach). #mubb usually does their part.

@markstrot That's going to be one expensive burger!

[MUBBOldtimer @MubbOldtimer]

@itsallstraw I Kant believe she said that!

[MUBBOldtimer @MubbOldtimer]

@PaintTouches I think only 5-10 teams will have that ability. They will still need a conference for some stability. But the combination of that team-driven monetization in the pre-con and Big Four conference driven general rules (incl championship play) should scare anyone on the outside.

[MUBBOldtimer @MubbOldtimer]

@PaintTouches Your proposal, a great idea, will only work if the top four care about CBB as a whole. I'm not sure that is how this is trending.

[MUBBOldtimer @MubbOldtimer]

@PaintTouches Beyond the schedule, rumblings now have some conferences ready to codify their own rules, splitting from the NCAA. I could see the big four trying to set themselves apart and leaving the rest to fend for themselves. These tournaments are a step in that direction.

[MUBBOldtimer @MubbOldtimer]

@PaintTouches I'm a bit surprised, based only on the eye-test, that Royce's progress was that low. His usage went way up I guess.
